For me, it feels like I have an over-developed worry gene and it&#39;s work almost every day to refocus on the positive...and it&#39;s worth the work.<br />thanks for sharing your comment<br />carolCarol Fragale Brillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02832865888789761328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-512607099126623086.post-28817152299207617302015-05-31T09:35:41.867-07:002015-05-31T09:35:41.867-07:00Welcome back to blogging. Carol. I think the title...Welcome back to blogging. Carol. I think the title of your blog is perfect for you, someone who has professionally been a counselor to so many people who are striving for personal growth. And then adding your life experiences -- good and bad -- make it even better. I am perpetually optimistic that things happen for a reason and whatever happens, I will be okay. I have down times but I usually can talk myself out of the worst case scenario. Does it always come out roses? Not a chance... but as you suggest, even a bad outcome is a lesson. &quot;Don&#39;t do that again, or, what were you thinking? as common self admonitions.<br /><br />Let me think a bit more on what hope means to me and I will stop back and comment some more.<br /><br />Glad you are back and hope that readers will share their stories of hope and growth.Chris Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400228290978730369noreply@blogger.com
